Nov 25 21:51:06 <Colin__> compiling a little tutorial for a class ive got on how to get started with the guru plug ? its just a start ? still allot left to include
Nov 25 21:51:07 <Colin__> http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2919412/The%20GuruPlug.docx
Nov 25 21:51:36 <Colin__> and yes .. i will be giving credit to the sites which provided this information
Nov 25 23:26:58 <tinker-f595> Colin__: your fist mistake is to use a proprietary microsoft  file format for the document
Nov 25 23:27:23 <tinker-f595>  /fist/first/
Nov 25 23:36:58 <Colin__> hahahaha
Nov 25 23:37:57 * Colin__ opens up libre office 
Nov 25 23:39:05 <Colin__> the sad truth is that these professors arnt going to accept anything other than pdf or .doc ? i'll put this into html eventualy, .. but .. not now
Nov 25 23:43:40 <kerio> Colin__: latex2pdf
Nov 25 23:43:43 <kerio> i mean, *duh*
Nov 25 23:44:10 <kerio> why would you do that in html
Nov 25 23:45:01 <Colin__> well im going to put it up on my silly site so no one has to download it
Nov 25 23:45:13 <kerio> yeah, but you still do that in latex
Nov 25 23:45:17 <kerio> and then you convert it
Nov 25 23:52:45 <Colin__> .. duh ? clearly
Nov 25 23:56:05 <Colin__> obviously im stumbling my way through this project ? i know nothing of latex, i will check it out though
Nov 26 00:04:04 <kerio> you just don't write... any kind of literature, really, without latex
Nov 26 00:04:09 <kerio> especially technical one
Nov 26 00:05:17 <Colin__> well, thanks for pointing it out ? BUT .. im new to this ? so, i guess in the future  i'll know better
Nov 26 00:10:30 <kerio> Colin__: try downloading LyX
Nov 26 00:11:16 <kerio> it's an almost-wysiwyg latex editor
Nov 26 00:13:21 <Colin__> nice? checking it out now
Nov 26 00:13:24 <Colin__> thanks
